FDA Approves Expanded Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) Indication for XARELTO ® (rivaroxaban) Plus Aspirin to Include Patients After Lower-Extremity Revascularization (LER) Due to Symptomatic PAD
RARITAN, N.J., August 24, 2021 – The Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved an expanded peripheral artery disease (PAD) indication for the XARELTO® (rivaroxaban) vascular dose (2.5 mg twice daily plus aspirin 100 mg once daily) to include patients following recent lower-extremity revascularization (LER) due to symptomatic PAD. The approval is based on data from the Phase 3 VOYAGER PAD study. With this approval, XARELTO® is the first and only therapy indicated to help reduce the risks of major cardiovascular (CV) events in p...

Combined Stroke and Spinal Cord Ischemia in Hybrid Type I Aortic Arch Debranching and TEVAR and the Dual Role of the Left Subclavian Artery
AORTIC ARCH PATHOLOGY, as a part of acute aortic syndrome, is a difficult clinical problem to address. Whether it presents as an intramural hematoma with impending rupture, isolated aneurysmal disease, or acute localized dissection, it creates a clinical challenge to the perioperative team. Some of the difficulty stems from determining the best operative strategy, either an open approach, total endovascular repair, or a hybrid of the two. Hybrid aortic arch repair involves two steps: open aortic branch revascularization and endovascular aortic repair.

Early screening for post-stroke depression, and the effect on functional outcomes, quality of life and mortality: a protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis
Introduction Post-stroke depression (PSD) is a severe complication of cerebrovascular stroke affecting about one-third of stroke survivors. Moreover, PSD is associated with functional recovery and quality of life (QOL) in stroke survivors. Screening for PSD is recommended. There are, however, differences in the literature on the impact of early screening on functional outcomes. In this systematic review, we synthesise the currently available literature regarding the associations between timing and setting of PSD screening and mortality, QOL and functional outcomes in stroke survivors. Methods and analysis We will systemat...

Multicentre observational study on practice of ventilation in brain injured patients: the VENTIBRAIN study protocol
Introduction Mechanical ventilatory is a crucial element of acute brain injured patients’ management. The ventilatory goals to ensure lung protection during acute respiratory failure may not be adequate in case of concomitant brain injury. Therefore, there are limited data from which physicians can draw conclusions regarding optimal ventilator management in this setting. Methods and analysis This is an international multicentre prospective observational cohort study. The aim of the ‘multicentre observational study on practice of ventilation in brain injured patients’—the VENTIBRAIN study—is t...

Effect of aspirin in takotsubo syndrome: protocol of a systematic review and meta-analysis
This study aims to evaluate the impact of long-term maintenance treatment of aspirin in TTS and provides insights in clinical management. Methods and analysis After searching through electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, National Library of Medicine Gateway, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP), grey literatures, conference abstract and trial registries for clinical studies investigating the impact of aspirin on patients with TTS, a systemic review and meta-analysis will be conducted. The search will be limited from inception of each database to 1 August 2020. The outcomes including all-cause death, TT...

Allogeneic adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells in ischaemic stroke (AMASCIS-02): a phase IIb, multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial protocol
Introduction Stroke is a serious public health problem, given it is a major cause of disability worldwide despite the spread of recanalisation therapies. Enhancement of brain plasticity with stem cell administration is a promising innovative therapy to reduce sequelae in these patients. Methods and analysis We have developed a phase IIb, multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial protocol to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous administration of allogeneic adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs) in patients with acute ischaemic stroke, concurrently with conventional...

Clinical Effects of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy or Aspirin Monotherapy after Acute Minor Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack, a Meta-Analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Among patients with acute minor ischemic stroke or TIA, DAPT, as compared with aspirin monotherapy, might offer better effectiveness in terms of ischemic stroke recurrence at the expense of a higher risk of major bleeding. The trade-off between ischemic benefits and bleeding risks should be assessed in tailoring the therapeutic strategies.PMID:34323179 | DOI:10.2174/1381612827666210728102459

E-085 Interventional and diagnostic neuroradiology fellowship education in the COVID-19 era
ConclusionElective neurointerventional case numbers decreased as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly impacting the fourth quarter of the 2019-2020 academic year (April - June). Similarly, there was a sizable decrease in diagnostic neuroradiology case volume during this same time period. The decrease in procedural and diagnostic neuroradiology cases raised concerns regarding the educational experience for both diagnostic and neurointerventional radiology fellows. However, as a result of decreased case volume, fellowship education was rapidly augmented with a wide variety of online webinars, lectures, case confer...
